Solutions of semi-classical Schrodinger equation with isotropic harmonic potential focus periodically in time. We study the perturbation of this equation by a nonlinear term. If the scaling of this perturbation is critical, each focus crossing is described by a nonlinear scattering operator, which is therefore iterated as many times as the solution passes through a focus. The study of this nonlinear problem is made possible by the introduction of two operators well adapted to Schrodinger equations with harmonic potential, and by suitable Strichartz inequalities.
In this paper, we determine the wave front sets of solutions to Schrödinger equations of a harmonic oscillator with sub-quadratic perturbation by using the representation of the Schrödinger evolution operator of a harmonic oscillator via the wave packet transform.
In this paper we obtain some Strichartz estimates for the Schrödinger equation associated to the harmonic oscillator and the Laplacian. Our main tool will be some embeddings between Lebesgue spaces and suitable Triebel-Lizorkin spaces.
We consider the Cauchy problem of a dissipative nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a time dependent harmonic potential. We find a critical situation that the $L^2$-norm of dissipative solutions decays or not and which is decided by a nonlinear power and time decay order of harmonic potential.
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for an inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrodinger equation with exponential growth nonlinearity and harmonic potential in two space dimensions. We prove global well-posedness, existence of the associated ground state and instability of the standing wave.
We provide necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for the exact controllability of the one-dimensional fractional free and fractional harmonic Schrödinger equations. The necessary and sufficient condition for the exact controllability of fractional free Schrödinger equations is derived from the Logvinenko-Sereda theorem and its quantitative version established by Kovrijkine, whereas the one for the exact controllability of fractional harmonic Schrödinger equations is deduced from an infinite dimensional version of the Hautus test for Hermite functions and the Plancherel-Rotach formula.
For the Schrödinger flow from $R^2 \times R^+$ to the 2-sphere $S^2$, it is not known if finite energy solutions can blow up in finite time. We study equivariant solutions whose energy is near the energy of the family of equivariant harmonic maps. We prove that such solutions remain close to the harmonic maps until the blow up time (if any), and that they blow up if and only if the length scale of the nearest harmonic map goes to zero.
We consider the final-state problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equations (NLS) with a suitable time-decaying harmonic oscillator. In this equation, the power of nonlinearity $|u|^ρu $ is included in the long-range class if $0 < ρ\leq 2/(n(1- λ)) $ with $0 \leq λ<1/2$, which is determined by the harmonic potential and a coefficient of Laplacian. In this paper, we find the final state for this system and obtain the decay estimate for asymptotics.
In this paper,we show that spherical bounded energy solution of the defocusing 3D energy critical Schrödinger equation with harmonic potential, $(i\partial_t + \frac Δ2+\frac {|x|^2}2)u=|u|^4u$, exits globally and scatters to free solution in the space $Σ=H^1\bigcap\mathcal F H^1$. We preclude the concentration of energy in finite time by combining the energy decay estimates.
Time-decaying harmonic oscillators yield dispersive estimates with weak decay, and change the threshold power of the nonlinearity between the short and the long range. In the non-critical case for the time-decaying harmonic oscillator, this threshold can be characterized by polynomial nonlinearities. However, in the critical case, it is difficult to characterize the threshold using only polynomial terms, and thus we use logarithmic nonlinear terms.
We derive conditional stability estimates for inverse scattering problems related to time harmonic magnetic Schrödinger equation. We prove logarithmic type estimates for retrieving the magnetic (up to a gradient) and electric potentials from near field or far field maps. Our approach combines techniques from similar results obtained in the literature for inhomogeneous inverse scattering problems based on the use of geometrical optics solutions.
We obtain existence and multiplicity results for the solutions of a class of coupled semilinear bi-harmonic Schrödinger equations. Actually, using the classical Mountain Pass Theorem and minimization techniques, we prove the existence of critical points of the associated functional constrained on the \emph{Nehari manifold}. Furthermore, we show that using the so-called \emph{fibering method} and the \emph{Lusternik-Schnirel'man theory} there exist infinitely many solutions, actually a countable family of critical points, for such a semiliner bi-hamonic Schrödinger system under study in this wo…
The initial value problem for some coupled nonlinear Schrodinger system with unbounded potential is investigated. In the defocusing case, global well-posedness is obtained. For the focusing sign, existence of global and non global solutions is discussed via potential well method. Moreover, existence of ground state and instability of standing waves are proved.
We study strong instability of standing waves $e^{iωt} ϕ_ω(x)$ for nonlinear Schrödinger equations with $L^2$-supercritical nonlinearity and a harmonic potential, where $ϕ_ω$ is a ground state of the corresponding stationary problem. We prove that $e^{iωt} ϕ_ω(x)$ is strongly unstable if $\partial_λ^2 E(ϕ_ω^λ) |_{λ=1}\le 0$, where $E$ is the energy and $v^λ(x)=λ^{N/2} v(λx)$ is the $L^2$-invariant scaling.
This note studies the asymptotic behavior of global solutions to the fourth-order Schrödinger equation $$i\dot u+Δ^2 u+F(x,u)=0 .$$ Indeed, for both cases, local and non-local source term, the scattering is obtained in the focusing mass super-critical and energy sub-critical regimes, with radial setting. This work uses a new approach due to Dodson-Murphy \cite{dm}.
We study the instability of standing-wave solutions $e^{iωt}ϕ_ω(x)$ to the inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation $$iϕ_t=-\triangleϕ+|x|^2ϕ-|x|^b|ϕ|^{p-1}ϕ, \qquad \in\mathbb{R}^N, $$ where $ b > 0 $ and $ ϕ_ω $ is a ground-state solution. The results of the instability of standing-wave solutions reveal a balance between the frequency $ω$ of wave and the power of nonlinearity $p $ for any fixed $ b > 0. $
We consider Calderón's inverse boundary value problems for a class of nonlinear Helmholtz Schrödinger equations and Maxwell's equations in a bounded domain in $\R^n$. The main method is the higher-order linearization of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map of the corresponding equations. The local uniqueness of the linearized partial data Calderón's inverse problem is obtained following \cite{DKSU}. The Runge approximation properties and unique continuation principle allow us to extend to global situations. Simultaneous recovery of some unknown cavity$/$boundary and coefficients are given as some appl…
We consider nonlocal linear Schrödinger-type critical systems of the type \begin{equation}\label{eqabstr} Δ^{1/4} v=Ω\, v~~~\mbox{in $\R\,.$} \ \end{equation} where $Ω$ is antisymmetric potential in $L^2(\R,so(m))$, $v$ is a ${\R}^m$ valued map and $Ω\, v$ denotes the matrix multiplication. We show that every solution $v\in L^2(\R,\R^m)$ of \rec{eqabstr} is in fact in $L^p_{loc}(\R,\R^m)$, for every $2\le p<+\infty$, in other words, we prove that the system (\ref{eqabstr}) which is a-priori only critical in $L^2$ happens to have a subcritical behavior for antisymmetric potentials. As an applic…
In this article we study the Schrödinger equation associated with Harmonic oscillator in the form of Strichartz type inequality. We give simple proofs for Strichartz type inequalities using purely the $L^2 \to L^p$ operator norm estimates of the spectral projections associated harmonic oscillator proved in \cite{KT}. Our Strichartz type estimates are sharp in sense of regularity of initial data.
We study nonlinear Schrödinger $i\partial_tu-Hu=F(u)$ (NLSH) equation associated to harmonic oscillator $H=-Δ+|x|^2$ in modulation spaces $M^{p,q}.$ When $F(u)= (|x|^{-γ}\ast |u|^2)u, $ we prove global well-posedness for (NLSH) in modulation spaces $M^{p,p}(\mathbb R^d)$ $ (1\leq p < 2d/(d+γ), 0<γ< \min \{ 2, d/2\}).$ When $F(u)= (K\ast |u|^{2k})u$ with $K\in \mathcal{F}L^q $ (Fourier-Lebesgue spaces) or $M^{\infty,1}$ (Sjöstrand's class) or $M^{1, \infty},$ some local and global well-posedness for (NLSH) are obtained in some modulation spaces. When $F$ is real entire and $F(0)=0$, we prove lo…
Strichartz estimates for a time-decaying harmonic oscillator were proven with some assumptions of coefficients for the time-decaying harmonic potentials. The main results of this paper are to remove these assumptions and to enable us to deal with the more general coefficient functions. Moreover, we also prove similar estimates for time-decaying homogeneous magnetic fields.
The purpose of this article is to construct global solutions for some super-crtical Schrodinger equations using the theory of random data introduced by N.Burq and N.Tzvetkov. We begin our study by the cubic equation in three dimension. Thanks to the lens transform, it suffices to study a local theory for the Schrödinger equations with harmonic potential and we can establish Bourgain type bilinear estimates for the harmonic oscillator. Then, we explain how we can generalize this result in all dimensions.
We give bilateral pointwise estimates for positive solutions of the equation \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{aligned} -\triangle u & = ωu \, \,& & \mbox{in} \, \, Ω, \quad u \ge 0, \\ u & = f \, \, & &\mbox{on} \, \, \partial Ω, \end{aligned} \right. \end{equation*} in a bounded uniform domain $Ω\subset {\bf R}^n$, where $ω$ is a locally finite Borel measure in $Ω$, and $f\ge 0$ is integrable with respect to harmonic measure $d H^{x}$ on $\partialΩ$. We also give sufficient and matching necessary conditions for the existence of a positive solution in terms of the exponential integrability of …
We study two resonant Hamiltonian systems on the phase space $L^2(\mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{C})$: the quintic one-dimensional continuous resonant equation, and a cubic resonant system that has appeared in the literature as a modified scattering limit for an NLS equation with cigar shaped trap. We prove that these systems approximate the dynamics of the quintic and cubic one-dimensional NLS with harmonic trapping in the small data regime on long times scales. We then pursue a thorough study of the dynamics of the resonant systems themselves. Our central finding is that these resonant equat…
In this paper we prove an abstract KAM theorem for infinite dimensional Hamiltonians systems. This result extends previous works of S.B. Kuksin and J. Pöschel and uses recent techniques of H. Eliasson and S.B. Kuksin. As an application we show that some 1D nonlinear Schrödinger equations with harmonic potential admits many quasi-periodic solutions. In a second application we prove the reducibility of the 1D Schrödinger equations with the harmonic potential and a quasi periodic in time potential.
In this article, we first present the construction of Gibbs measures associated to nonlinear Schrödinger equations with harmonic potential. Then we show that the corresponding Cauchy problem is globally well-posed for rough initial conditions in a statistical set (the support of the measures). Finally, we prove that the Gibbs measures are indeed invariant by the flow of the equation. As a byproduct of our analysis, we give a global well-posedness and scattering result for the $L^2$ critical and super-critical NLS (without harmonic potential).
We prove existence and multiplicity of bound and ground state solutions, under appropriate conditions on the parameters, for a bi-harmonic stationary system of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger--Korteweg-de Vries equations.
Using certain Ito's equation, we introduce the probability on the space of paths and show its relevance to the scattering properties of multidimensional Schrodinger operator. To relate the geometry of the support of potential to the spectral type we develop a special variant of Potential theory and prove some estimates on the modified Harmonic measure.

In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many small energy solution of a semilinear Schrodinger equation via the dual form of the generalized fountain theorem. This equation is with periodic potential and concave-convex nonlinearities.
We study the Cauchy problem for Schrodinger equations with repulsive quadratic potential and power-like nonlinearity. The local problem is well-posed in the same space as that used when a confining harmonic potential is involved. For a defocusing nonlinearity, it is globally well-posed, and a scattering theory is available, with no long range effect for any superlinear nonlinearity. When the nonlinearity is focusing, we prove that choosing the harmonic potential sufficiently strong prevents blow-up in finite time. Thanks to quadratic potentials, we provide a method to anticipate, delay, or pre…

For Schrödinger maps from $\R^2\times\R^+$ to the 2-sphere $§^2$, it is not known if finite energy solutions can form singularities (``blowup'') in finite time. We consider equivariant solutions with energy near the energy of the two-parameter family of equivariant harmonic maps. We prove that if the topological degree of the map is at least four, blowup does {\it not} occur, and global solutions converge (in a dispersive sense -- i.e. scatter) to a fixed harmonic map as time tends to infinity. The proof uses, among other things, a time-dependent splitting of the solution, the ``generalized Ha…
We study the instability of standing wave solutions for nonlinear Schrödinger equations with a one-dimensional harmonic potential in dimension $N\ge 2$. We prove that if the nonlinearity is $L^2$-critical or supercritical in dimension $N-1$, then any ground states are strongly unstable by blowup.
We consider the nonlinear Schrodinger equation under a partial quadratic confinement. We show that the global dispersion corresponding to the direction(s) with no potential is enough to prove global in time Strichartz estimates, from which we infer the existence of wave operators thanks to suitable vector-fields. Conversely, given an initial Cauchy datum, the solution is global in time and asymptotically free, provided that confinement affects one spatial direction only. This stems from anisotropic Morawetz estimates, involving a marginal of the position density.
We study the equivariant harmonic map heat flow, Schrödinger maps equation, and generalized Landau-Lifshitz equation from $\mathbb{C}^n$ to $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n$. By means of a careful geometric analysis, we determine a new, highly useful representation of the problem in terms of a PDE for radial functions from $\mathbb{C}^n$ to $\mathbb{S}^2$. Using this new representation, we are able to write explicit formulae for the harmonic maps in this context, and prove that they all have infinite energy. We show that the PDEs admit a family of self-similar solutions with smooth profiles; these solu…
The semilinear space-time fractional Schrödinger equation is considered. First, we give the explicit form for the fundamental solutions by using the Fox $H$-functions in order to to establish some $L^s$ decay estimates. After that, we give some space-time estimates for the mild solutions from which the local well-posedness is derived on some proper Banach space.
The semi-classical regime of standing wave solutions of a Schrödinger equation in presence of non-constant electric and magnetic potentials is studied in the case of non-local nonlinearities of Hartree type. It is show that there exists a family of solutions having multiple concentration regions which are located around the minimum points of the electric potential.
We study the existence and stability of standing waves associated to the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with a critical rotational speed and an axially symmetric harmonic potential. This equation arises as an effective model describing the attractive Bose-Einstein condensation in a magnetic trap rotating with an angular velocity. By viewing the equation as NLS with a constant magnetic field and with (or without) a partial harmonic confinement, we establish the existence and orbital stability of prescribed mass standing waves for the equation with mass-subcritical, …
We consider systems of weakly coupled Schrödinger equations with nonconstant potentials and we investigate the existence of nontrivial nonnegative solutions which concentrate around local minima of the potentials. We obtain sufficient and necessary conditions for a sequence of least energy solutions to concentrate.
We consider a system of nonlinear Schrödinger equations related to the Raman amplification in a plasma. We study the orbital stability and instability of standing waves bifurcating from the semi-trivial standing wave of the system. The stability and instability of the semi-trivial standing wave at the bifurcation point are also studied. Moreover, we determine the set of the ground states completely.
The existence of ground states and (multiple) bound states to semilinear time-independent Maxwell and Schrödinger equations, with or without $L^2$-constraints, is investigated.
We interpret the lens transformation (a variant of the pseudoconformal transformation) as a pseudoconformal compactification of spacetime, which converts the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) without potential with a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with attractive harmonic potential. We then discuss how several existing results about NLS can be placed in this compactified setting, thus offering a new perspective to view this theory.
In this paper, we study the following semilinear Schrödinger system $$ -\triangle u+u=(1+K_α(εx))|u|^{p-2}u\ in \mathbb{R}^N, u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) $$ where $3\leq p<2^*$ and $ε>0$, $α>0$ are small parameters. Under some conditions on $K_α$ and the parameters $α$ and $ε$, we show that this equation exist solution manifolds.
A concept of semiclassically concentrated solutions is formulated for the multidimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) with an external field. These solutions are considered as multidimensional solitary waves. The center of mass of such a solution is shown to move along with the bicharacteristics of the basic symbol of the corresponding linear Schrödinger equation. The leading term of the asymptotic WKB-solution is constructed for the multidimensional NLSE. Special cases are considered for the standard one-dimensional NLSE and for NLSE in cylindrical coordinates.
In the wake of a preceding article \cite{RogUnt06} introducing the Schrödinger-Virasoro group, we study its affine action on a space of $(1+1)$-dimensional Schrödinger operators with time- and space-dependent potential $V$ periodic in time. We focus on the subspace corresponding to potentials that are at most quadratic in the space coordinate, which is in some sense the natural quantization of the space of Hill (Sturm-Liouville) operators on the one-dimensional torus. The orbits in this subspace have finite codimension, and their classification by studying the stabilizers can be obtained by ex…
We consider the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with harmonic trapping on $\mathbb{R}^D$ ($1\leq D\leq 5$). In the case when all but one directions are trapped (a.k.a "cigar-shaped" trap), following the approach of Hani-Pausader-Tzvetkov-Visciglia, we prove modified scattering and construct modified wave operators for small initial and final data respectively. The asymptotic behavior turns out to be a rather vigorous departure from linear scattering and is dictated by the resonant system of the NLS equation with full trapping on $\mathbb{R}^{D-1}$. In the physical dimension $D=3$, this sy…
